The Eagles will cover +8 against the Saints because I'm taking all the underdogs and Nick Foles has something special going on.

I'm taking the Eagles. I'm taking all the underdogs this week... I feel like eight is too much. And Nick Foles, whatever's going on, I don't know... I'm taking the Eagles.

The Eagles lost 20-14, covering the +8 spread.

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs... 1-11 in their last 12 playoff games. That is so, so bad. And I actually feel bad for Kansas City fans because it's one of those stats that I didn't even believe when I saw.

The Chiefs had a notorious playoff losing streak prior to Patrick Mahomes' era; however, they won this specific game against the Colts to break the streak.

The Chiefs are actually 1-3 in their last six games if you exclude their wins against the Raiders.

The Chiefs are 1-3 in their last six games if you only count real teams, not the Raiders. Besides that [beating the Raiders twice], they're 1-3 in their last six. So I'm saying it doesn't look good.

If you look at the Chiefs' last six games prior to the divisional round (vs Rams, Raiders, Ravens, Chargers, Seahawks, Raiders), and remove the two Raiders wins, they were indeed 1-3.

Patrick Mahomes will likely lose his first career playoff game because first-time quarterbacks are 13-30 in the postseason since 2002.

First time quarterbacks straight up in the playoffs since 2002, 13 and 30. All three lost last weekend: Lamar Jackson, Mitch Trubisky and Deshaun Watson. So will Patrick Mahomes... I'm excited to watch him play, but it feels like, oh, my God. You can't just keep having heartbreak in Kansas City, can you?

Mahomes defied the trend, leading the Chiefs to a 31-13 victory over the Colts in his first playoff start.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
